With this nation-wide heatwave, make sure to check on you loved ones; whether it’s your neighbours, family, or friends! Seniors are at a higher risk of heat-related Illness. Remember to stay hydrated and remain indoors or in a cool place @LASANational @ACSANational @COTAAustralia

GMR is hiring! We're looking for quantitatively trained postdoctoral fellows for research in aging/frailty with @krockdoc & @olga_theou. Details here: careerbeacon.com/en/job/1484…

Newly published study with @Krockdoc shows that long term care residents who are the most frail have higher risk of death but lower risk of hospitalization than nonfrail residents. @GeriatricMedRes @CRE_Frailty ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2998…

Just 41% of people aged 70 and over aren't aware that strength and balance activities reduce people's chances of falling #EUFF2018: ow.ly/RIkw30kMvRg

Great video discussing the benefits of strength and power training for people with dementia! 🏋️‍♀️💪🏼 #strengthforlife teapaw.org/insightsbs/status/1014…
Prof. Maria Fiatarone Singh is doing a study with dementia patients encouraging them to do strength training. #InsightSBS
The squat is a fundamental exercise for older adults, as lower body strength deteriorates at a faster rate than upper body as part of the ageing process. If you maintain strength in your legs you maintain your independence & reduce the risk of falls! #strengthforlife 👍💪🏼
In August we will use performing arts to share the stories of older adults...stories about identity, #frailty, and what it means to #age in our society. Really looking forward to taking part in #performyourscience 2018! #artsinhealth #artsmatter #knowledgetranslation @CRE_Frailty teapaw.org/inspiringsthaus/status…
The winners of #PerformYourScience have been announced! Expect research stories told through stand-up comedy, poetry, dance and even mime this #ScienceWeek inspiringsa.org.au/perform-y…
